GUY I spent 18yrs sitting on J34 Westinghouse jet engine mounted on a tandem axle trailer here in Qld at Willowbank Raceway drag strip, obviously no afterburner as the out put goes into a ground facing trailer width fan shape that directs the heat to the ground. This is to do several things depending on the circumstances, either heat the track if its gotten cold after theres been an oil down or accident, to blow residual water off after other operations due to rain on the track, or blow the rice husk ash that is used to soak oil or coolant off the track after its been vacuumed up. Runs on unleaded fuel so that if theres a spill it evaporated fast, unlike other fuels that leave an oily residue. I wouldn’t run that jet engine over 650-750 degrees a 1,000 is way too hot. Even at 70% i only get to 750. Very jealous as I am retired mechanical engineer and have always wanted to build one, I have the equipment needed and hands on experience in fabrication. Great video would like to see some more. From Ipswich, Queensland, Australia.

Guy was once compared to Fred Dibner, a great old boy that made a career as a steeple jack. He's long since passed away but his climbing videos make my toes curl! Well worth a look if you're not familiar.
@SquireDAFАй бұрын
@@theboycalledleaf Oh Very Familiar with Fred, a real legend of a man, and yes I struggle to watch his climbing videos gives me the fear just watching, very talented man with an incredible enthusiasm for engineering history.

This was how the touring cars guys got over turbo lag in corners. That was back in the days of Siera cosworths. They were all at it. Firing fuel into the chamber when off boost. That gave them full boost instantly out of the corners. Was great to watch. Until it all got banned. Steve.

It's a nice flamethrower, but can it make any thrust? That flimsy table on wheels didn't move at all.
@JMMC1005Ай бұрын
The nozzle geometry probably wasn't optimal and I'm not sure how hard they were pushing it - but jets of this basic design are genuine engines and can produce usable thrust. Plenty of turbocharger jet go-karts on KZbin if you want to see one pushing a vehicle. Also, that looks like a welding table - they're very heavy and not at all flimsy. If the wheel brakes were on it would take a good bit of thrust to make it slide along.
@AntonowskyflyАй бұрын
Will we be assessing the thrust that this beaut can produce?

@NitroGnomeАй бұрын
how about compounding 3 turbos in series to rise compression ratio much much higher, like in real jet engine... Then you can burn much more fuel, and make much more thrust.... afterburner is bit tricky with that kind of design, it may make easily too much pressure to nozzle... But finely built thing!...
